Pokhara is one of the main tourism
centers in Nepal. The city is located in
a subtropical valley dotted with lakes.
The Annapurna range is at a distance of
30 to 40 kilometers away provides a
stunning backdrop. The proximity to the
snow-covered mountains and the gentle
and picturesque landscape at its feet
have contributed to Pokhara’s growing
popularity with travelers. The
magnificent scenery is filled with
charming villages and surprisingly
abundant forests. The good trails are
old but are still heavily used as mule
paths. They lead through fields, and
over forested hills and mountain ridges
that invite one to indulge in the
spectacular views of the Annapurna
massif.
Baidam on the Phewa Tal lake is the true
center of Pokhara’s tourism activities.
The region achieved fame for its mild
climate, its lakes and beautiful
mountain scenery. Machhapuchhare, 6997
m, a mountain known for its shape as a
fishtail, exudes a particularly strong
magical effect on locals and travelers
alike.
